  • Failure of the Mahagathbandhan
    ISSN (Online) - 2349-8846 Failure of the Mahagathbandhan In the Lok Sabha elections of 2019 in Uttar Pradesh, the contest was keenly watched as the alliance of the Samajwadi Party, Bahujan Samaj Party, and Rashtriya Lok Dal took on the challenge against the domination of the Bharatiya Janata Party. What contributed to the continued good performance of the BJP and the inability of the alliance to assert its presence is the focus of analysis here. In the last decade, politics in Uttar Pradesh (UP) has seen radical shifts. The Lok Sabha elections 2009 saw the Congress’s comeback in UP. It gained votes in all subregions of UP and also registered a sizeable increase in vote share among all social groups. The 2012 assembly elections gave a big victory to the Samajwadi Party (SP) when it was able to get votes beyond its traditional voters: Muslims and Other Backward Classes (OBCs). The 2014 Lok Sabha elections saw the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) winning 73 seats with its ally Apna Dal. It was facilitated by the consolidation of voters cutting across caste and class, in favour of the party. Riding on the popularity of Narendra Modi, the BJP was able to trounce the regional parties and emerge victorious in the 2017 assembly elections as well. But, against the backdrop of anti-incumbency, an indifferent economic record, and with the coming together of the regional parties, it was generally believed that the BJP would not be able to replicate its success in 2019. However, the BJP’s performance in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections shows its continued domination over the politics of UP.

  • Indian National Congress Sessions
    Indian National Congress Sessions INC sessions led the course of many national movements as well as reforms in India. Consequently, the resolutions passed in the INC sessions reflected in the political reforms brought about by the British government in India. Although the INC went through a major split in 1907, its leaders reconciled on their differences soon after to give shape to the emerging face of Independent India. Here is a list of all the Indian National Congress sessions along with important facts about them. This list will help you prepare better for SBI PO, SBI Clerk, IBPS Clerk, IBPS PO, etc. Indian National Congress Sessions During the British rule in India, the Indian National Congress (INC) became a shiny ray of hope for Indians. It instantly overshadowed all the other political associations established prior to it with its very first meeting. Gradually, Indians from all walks of life joined the INC, therefore making it the biggest political organization of its time. Most exam Boards consider the Indian National Congress Sessions extremely noteworthy. This is mainly because these sessions played a great role in laying down the foundational stone of Indian polity. Given below is the list of Indian National Congress Sessions in chronological order. Apart from the locations of various sessions, make sure you also note important facts pertaining to them.

  • Peoples' Mahagathbandhan
    PEOPLES’ MAHAGATHBANDHAN THE STRATEGIC VOTING GUIDE FOR 2019 WE, THE PEOPLES OF INDIA, having solemnly resolved to constitute a PEOPLES’ MAHAGATHBANDHAN to save the Indian Constitution and to bring to justice the ruling fascists for their crimes against the Bahujan peoples, are faced with the immediate task of defeating them in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections. Page 2 Why a People’s Mahagathbandhan? We need a Peoples’ Grand Alliance because most of our parties have failed to come together to defeat the fascists. Our parties have failed us but we cannot let them be defeated by murderous forces of Sangh Parivar. The 2019 Lok Sabha elections will decide the fate of one-sixth of humanity threatened by fascist genocide. Our Peoples’ Mahagathbandhan is a principled social alliance of Bahujan labouring peoples. The principle that binds us is that our political differences should not come in the way of defeating enemies of humanity. Fascists are the common enemy of all our peoples and we have to fight them together despite our differences. This is a practical guide for realising the Peoples’ Mahagathbandhan through the Bahujan art of strategic voting. Page 3 The Strength of Peoples’ Mahagathbandhan The fascists captured state power in India by unifying the imperialist Upper Castes and consolidating their votes. To defeat them, we have to bring together Bahujans of all oppressed nationalities, from Kashmir to Tamil Nadu, from Punjab to Bengal, and from Nagaland to Kerala. The People’s Mahagathbandhan represents the majority as it is composed of Dalits, Adivasis, OBCs, Women, religious minorities, LGBTQ+ communities, people with disabilities and all oppressed nationalities of the subcontinent- the BAHUJAN MAJORITY and their political organisations.

    COVER STORY APRIL 2021 CENTRAL ORGAN OF CPI(ML) Rs. 25 COVER STORY MLAs Brutally Beaten Inside Bihar Assembly, Police Raj Act Passed The first use of the Bihar Special Armed Police Bill 2021 was perpetrated inside the Bihar Assembly itself on 23 March. Shattering all rules and traditions of the constitutional and parliamentary system, police and goons entered the Assembly, brutally beat up opposition MLAs and pushed them out, after which BJP-JDU passed the draconian Bihar Special Armed Police Bill 2021 changing Bihar into a Police Raj. Earlier, when the Assembly session commenced on 23 March the Opposition started protesting against the Police Raj Bill. The session was adjourned a few times due to opposition protests, and proceedings were obstructed throughout the day. At 5 pm before the session was to end, a large number of RAF police personnel were called inside the Assembly on the orders of the Speaker and the government. Marshals were of course already present. The Bihar DGP, Patna SSP and DM jointly oversaw the beating, kicking, fisticuffing of MLAs as they were pushed and dragged out of the Assembly. The SSP and DM were themselves among those who did the brutal beating. The entire Assembly was filled with police personnel and the Police Raj Act was passed in the complete absence of the Opposition. Journalists were also beaten up. Leader of CPIML legislative party Comrade Mahboob Alam's arm was twisted and wrenched. Comrade Sudama Prasad was pushed and shoved and he fell down the stairs, causing a serious finger injury. A CPIM MLA was so badly beaten up that he lost consciousness.

  • A Tale of Two Campaigns
    Bihar Assembly Elections A Tale of Two Campaigns Sarthak Bagchi Oct 31, 2015 Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar addressing an election rally in Vaishali, Bihar on 23/10/2015. Photo : PTI As Bihar enters the final phases of polling in the Assembly Elections, Sarthak Bagchi reflects on the competitive campaigns launched by the Bharatiya Janata Party led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) and the Grand Alliance of Nitish Kumar and Lalu Yadav, called the Mahagathbandhan. Bagchi’s reports bring out the divergent and distict campaign strategies of the two alliances, with one clearly on a grand scale catering to a richer, upper-caste voter base, designed to razzle and dazzle, while the other targets individuals in villages and hamlets, and is low-key. However, as Bagchi points out, both campaigns have been hard pressed to strike a balance between the rhetoric of caste and development. A tarpaulin sheet has been hastily erected to make a pandal (marquee) for a mahagathbandhan sabha (Grand Alliance meeting) in Samastipur district in Bihar. Sitting under its shade, Pintu Yadav, 26, is craning his neck eagerly scanning the skies for an incoming helicopter. “All these chutka netas (small leaders) keep occupying the stage till the badka neta (big leader) comes. I am waiting for the badka to arrive by helicopter.” The badka neta Pintu was waiting for happened to be the Chief Minister of Bihar and the face of the mahagathbandhan, Nitish Kumar. Pintu and the crowd of about 10,000-odd people were gathered in the dusty ground of a middle school in Samastipur district.
